A non-optical magnetometer is a type of device within the broad category of sensors that is specifically designed to measure magnetic fields without relying on optical detection methods. These devices are based on various principles of operation, such as Hall effect, magnetoinductive, fluxgate, SQUID (Superconducting QUantum Interference Device), and more. Non-optical magnetometers are widely used for a range of applications, including geological surveys, archeological exploration, space research, military and aerospace navigation systems, and the medical field for biomagnetic measurements. The variety of magnetometers allows different characteristics like sensitivity, noise level, and spatial resolution to be optimized depending on the particular needs of an application. The design, material used, and the technology applied to non-optical magnetometers have evolved, making these sensors an integral part of advanced measurement and diagnostic systems.
In the non-optical magnetometer market, several companies have established their presence. Among them are Honeywell International, which offers magnetoresistive and other types of magnetic sensors; Lake Shore Cryotronics, known for their cryogenic temperature sensors and magnetic test equipment; Bartington Instruments, specializing in precision magnetic field measurement; and Twinleaf LLC, which provides ultra-sensitive atomic magnetometers. Additionally, firms like Stefan Mayer Instruments and NXP Semiconductors also contribute to the diverse landscape of non-optical magnetometer technology and solutions. Show Less Read more
